IsraelCast Episode 189

On October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorists launched an unprecedented wave of attacks on Israel Envelope communities, murdering men, women, and children with no remorse, taking hostages, and destroying the land that Israeli pioneers worked so hard to develop. Four months later, even as people still mourn their losses and pray for the safe return of loved ones, these communities are starting to rebuild. On this special IsraelCast episode, host Steven Shalowitz tours Kibbutz Be’eri, a small community located about five kilometers from Gaza, with longtime community member Rami Gold, who recounts his memories of October 7 and describes both the current environment of the Kibbutz and his community’s rebuilding efforts.

Rami Gold has been a member of Kibbutz Be’eri for the last 35 years. He was a firsthand witness to the October 7 attacks, where he lost several friends and his sister-in-law. He is now actively supporting his community’s efforts to rebuild the town and recover from the trauma.
